Shentu Hong should have heard the news of Long Chen's return, and rushed over as soon as possible. Seeing the old fatty looking at him with an unfriendly expression, Long Chen became vigilant in his heart. However, the other party was the Evil Dragon Palace Master, while Long Chen was only a disciple of the Evil Dragon Palace. Thus, Long Chen bowed slightly, and said: "Long Chen greets Palace Master."
Shentu Hong sized him up for a while, then said: "You didn't even tell me when you came back."
Long Chen said: "Palace Master is very busy, this is just a small matter."
In the Extreme Yin Devil Realm, Long Chen had seen many experts. In the past, Long Chen might have thought that this old fellow who had just entered the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm was very strong, but now, at least in the Yang family, Long Chen had already consecutively defeated more than seventy warriors of this level. Practice makes perfect. Although Long Chen's God Martial Spirit was restricted by his injuries, he still had a lot of confidence in dealing with Shentu Hong.
Long Chen was not afraid of this fat Palace Master at all, so there was no need to be polite in front of him.
Shentu Hong obviously did not take this to heart. After sizing up Long Chen for a while, he went straight to the point and said: "I will ask you a few things. First, the missing Zhao Xueji was killed by you, right?"
Long Chen knew that since he had asked like this, he must have already known about it. There was no need to hide these things, so he was very frank and nodded.
"Jiang Qing was also killed by you." Next, Shentu Hong said what he truly cared about.
So he had also discovered this.
Long Chen's foundation was now strong, so there was no need for him to hide this kind of thing. He still nodded and said: "I killed her."
Shentu Hong did not expect Long Chen to be so straightforward. There were only two possibilities. One was that Long Chen was a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers, and the other was that Long Chen was skilled and daring.
"Jiang Qing was the candidate that I had groomed to be the next Palace Master. You actually killed him, and he was even your master. It seems that I have always underestimated you. Even people like the Wine Addict and the Martial Addict admire you. I want to see how much weight you have."
As he spoke, Shentu Hong suddenly made his move.
If Long Chen was not injured, taking him down would naturally be a piece of cake. However, he was not in his peak condition. When Shentu Hong made his move, he had to go all out. The Scarlet Blood Desolation instantly appeared in his hands. In this narrow space, Shentu Hong was basically unable to use it. The two of them fiercely clashed a few times. Long Chen used the Heart Piercing Form to break through his opponent's defense, and the Scarlet Blood Desolation pressed against his opponent's chest.
Shentu Hong purely wanted to test Long Chen's strength, and did not have the intention to kill him. It was very obvious that he had already tested Long Chen. If Long Chen did not stop just now, his Scarlet Blood Desolation would have probably pierced through Shentu Hong.
"You seem to specialize in close combat. I admire you for being able to do this."
Shentu Hong originally thought that Long Chen only had the battle strength to kill Jiang Qing. He did not expect him to be so powerful. At this moment, he looked at Long Chen in shock. Although his face was still calm, his heart was already in a perilous situation.
Without a doubt, this Long Chen was a genius that was even more terrifying than Ye Zheng.
Back then, when Ye Zheng was defeated by him, he still had a chance to turn the tables. He did not expect that when Long Chen returned this time, he had already left him far behind.
If Ye Zheng knew this, he would definitely collapse.
One must know that almost all of his efforts were for the sake of defeating Long Chen and revitalizing the Evil Dragon Palace.
Although in this narrow space, Shentu Hong believed that he could not display his full strength, if it was on a real battlefield, he would not have been so easily defeated by Long Chen. He did not even use the Earth Idol. However, he reckoned that for Long Chen to be able to subdue him in such a short period of time, he should have the battle strength of the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm.
He remembered that when he first arrived here, he could only defeat Zhao Xueji...
This improvement was really too fast.
In the Extreme Yin Devil World, Long Chen had risen by two great realms.
When he left, he could not even defeat Jiang Qing. But now, he could easily defeat the Evil Dragon Palace Leader. If he recovered his strength, in fact, Long Chen would already be the number one person in the Evil Dragon Palace.
Long Chen wanted to intimidate this old fatty. Otherwise, if he knew that he killed Jiang Qing, he might continue to cause trouble for him.
Putting Scarlet Blood Tianhuang away, he said, "Jiang Qing coveted my talent, so I had no choice but to kill him. He reaped what he sowed. Although you've worked with him for many years and you've raised him as your successor, you can't blame me for this."
Waving his hand, Long Chen looked coldly at Shentu Hong.
His sharp gaze made Shentu Hong choose to compromise. At this moment, he thought of many things.
In his eyes, the status of Long Chen, a youth that could gain the attention of the Drunkard and the Martial Addict, was rapidly rising. It had already risen to the point that Shentu Hong feared him. He thought of many things. Clearly, he could not deal with Long Chen. And now that the Evil Dragon Palace was facing the crisis of destruction, this place was like stagnant water. The sudden appearance of this super genius made Shentu Hong feel excited.
Originally, Shentu Hong was already disappointed. He did not expect that Long Chen would appear at the last moment. When Long Chen displayed his strength, he did not think of killing Long Chen, but how to make good use of Long Chen.
"Don't be so serious. Let's sit down and chat for a while."
Shentu Hong relaxed his guard and sat down on the chair beside him. A pile of meat squeezed out from the gap of his chair. It was a rather spectacular sight.
Long Chen complied and sat down on another chair.
"Forget about Jiang Qing's matter. I want to talk about something related to you." Shentu Hong said.
"What is it?" Long Chen asked.
Shentu Hong said, "When I was young, I became enemies with the Wind Divine Palace Lord, Feng Ruoyan, and her sister. The hatred has continued until now. Feng Ruoyan has been looking for a chance to kill me all these years, but her strength is equal to mine. She can't kill me. But you also know that recently, she has the strength to destroy the Evil Dragon Palace. This is all because she accepted a heaven-defying disciple. This disciple's reputation has already shaken the three thousand palaces."
Long Chen knew that he was talking about Feng Zhilin, the other person who was affected by the Great Dao of Soul Fusion. However, it was clear that this woman was willing. Based on Long Chen's understanding of her, in order to obtain power, she was willing to give up anything.
Therefore, no matter what happened in the end, Long Chen felt that she deserved it.
"Recently, I heard that her strength has increased to the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm. She has surpassed her master, Feng Ruoyan, and become the number one person in the Wind Divine Palace."
When he said this, Shentu Hong observed Long Chen's reaction.
He knew that Long Chen and Feng Zhilin had a grudge. Basically, all the disciples of the Evil Dragon Palace knew about it. Therefore, he wanted to know how terrified and worried Long Chen would be when Feng Zhilin's strength reached such an untouchable level.
Unfortunately, Long Chen only furrowed his brows, and didn't have any other reaction. This made Shentu Hong believe that Long Chen's mental fortitude exceeded that of an ordinary person. Although he didn't show it, he should have been frightened in his heart.
However, at least he could calm down. This was a good thing.
Shentu Hong continued, "This is not the biggest bomb. Four months ago, Feng Ruoyan already submitted an application to the Martial God Palace to give the position of the Wind Divine Palace Master to Feng Zhilin. Now, Feng Zhilin is the Wind Divine Palace Master, but she still listens to Feng Ruoyan. Our Evil Dragon Palace is a thorn in her side. As long as she performs shockingly well in the Hidden Dragon Ranking Tournament half a year later, the consequences of our Evil Dragon Palace will be unimaginable."
Speaking until here, Shentu Hong looked at Long Chen and said, "You should know that Feng Zhilin's killing intent towards you is even stronger than the entire Evil Dragon Palace. We are now on the same side. Therefore, I hope that you can face this disaster together with the Evil Dragon Palace."
To Long Chen, Feng Zhilin was indeed a problem.
However, Long Chen did not take it to heart. He had the support of Nangong Lie and Han Yunxing in the True Martial Emperor Palace, so what was there to worry about? Furthermore, after he recovered, his battle prowess might not be weaker than the current Feng Zhilin, and might even be stronger.
However, as long as this woman existed, she would definitely pester him. This was also a problem. Long Chen knew Shentu Hong's difficulties. If the Evil Dragon Palace was destroyed, then he would have to bear the crime of ten thousand years. The ancestors of the Evil Dragon Palace would not forgive him.
Thus, Long Chen said, "Alright, what should I do?"
Shentu Hong's eyes lit up, and he said, "I've already thought about it. Are you interested in the position of the Evil Dragon Palace Master?"
Long Chen narrowed his eyes, he really did not expect this fellow to actually give up this position. This surprised him, but he knew the trick behind it, so he said, "You want to throw this mess to me? You should know that even if you are not the Evil Dragon Palace Master, that woman called Feng Ruoyan will not let you off."
Shentu Hong shook his head, "I'm not throwing this mess to you, but to give you a chance to compete and fight against Feng Zhilin, to give you a chance to stand out. If you rise up, when Feng Zhilin proposes to start a war with my Evil Dragon Palace, the people of the Martial God Palace will seriously consider whether or not to agree to her request because of the existence of a genius like you. You have already reached this level at such a young age, the weight of your words in front of the Martial God Palace is already much greater than mine. Ye Zheng is not enough, and Jiang Qing is gone. If the Evil Dragon Palace wants to survive, you are the only one who can save it. I beg you."
This was Shentu Hong's true wish. At this moment, he stood up, and his fat body actually knelt in front of Long Chen.
"This is my home that I've worked so hard to maintain. I don't want this home to be destroyed because of my personal mistakes. Only you can save it."
Long Chen hurriedly helped him up. This couldn't be done.
However, Long Chen understood this old fatty. Indeed, this heavy burden had caused him to carry too many things. Seeing that he was about to collapse, Long Chen's appearance at this time naturally became the person he prayed to.
"Evil Dragon Palace Master."
Long Chen suddenly felt that this title wasn't bad, and it was very suitable for him. In addition, didn't Lingxi want him to make a name for himself?
As for the trouble that this position would bring, he was not afraid at all. Even if it wasn't the Evil Dragon Palace Master, trouble would still come.
